Algeria Information

There is so much to see in Algeria vast parts of the Sahara desert remain unexplored; the Neolithic cave paintings of Tassili N'Ajjer and the volcanic peaks of the Hoggar mountains are Unesco listed; tribal culture is very much alive; the mysterious and untrareligious towns of the M'zab region offer a peek into life as it was lived hundreds of years ago; and the Tuareg capial, Tamanrasset, is a forest of veiled 'blue men' driving Jeeps and drinking mint tea. To the north, the Mediterranean coast is almost completely undeveloped, and the capital, Algiers, (Algiers Hotels) is a bombastic mixture of traditional and modern Algeria. Refreshingly, the day-to-day hassle common on many Arab Countries is conspicuously absent.
